I'll See You In The Margins

<p>George was a middle-aged chain-smoking chain-reading retired concrete salesman who mowed through a book a day held court all night at IHOP and corrected Vanderbilt professors at free public lectures. Jon was a philosophy student working part-time at the library when he first met the Zorba-like patron who dubbed himself The Great Nonsuch. Through unpredictable conversations and comical letters-where topics drifted from Flannery O'Connor to 1970s wrestling icon Jackie Fargo from cult leader Tony Alamo to philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein-George and Jon became the best of friends. Set in Nashville during the late '80s and '90s <em>I'll See You in the Margins</em> is a rollicking memoir about a curbstone philosopher an unlikely friendship and Music City on the cusp of transformation.</p>
